The staff was kind enough to tell us how to consume the soup. The broth is in a separate bowl to be added a little at a time to the couscous and dish. To find this restaurant, you really need to know the area. The door is very inconspicuous and looks like a hole in the wall but opens up into a quiet, multiple room, brightly lit place decorated with a mix of modern and traditional decoration. If in town, find this place!

The crust is thick, not Napolitean style. But crispy and good. Then they cut it checkerboard style. This I haven't seen before. But you can then eat it with a fork. It gets very crowded so get there early. Seems to be a favorite with the local families. A unique experience and a wonderfully different kind of pie.

I was thrilled to eat here. Momma cooks and she's damn good. We enjoyed the smoked fish and…read moreeggplant appetizers, a poor man's salad, swordfish with a tomato/capers/olive sauce that was the best dish I've had in the past week and busciata pasta with fish. The local white wine was excellent and the cannolo was one of the best in Sicily with ricotta so fresh that it brought tears to my eyes. I would eat here more than once. Must try the couscous next.

ious Trapani Food - Can't Miss!…read more I walked past this restaurant a few times, but Trip Advisor reviews brought me to the doorstep for dinner. The food was absolutely delicious - simple, fresh - I wish I'd eaten here sooner as I was tired of busy and touristy restaurants. An English menu is available and I chose a recommendation from host/owner: homemade busiate (pasta) with tomato, garlic and eggplant. (If you don't like eggplant, this is the place to try it - it was an eggplant 'puff' that melts in your mouth.) House white wine, fresh bread with olive oil for dipping, and a pistachio-ricotta dessert made for a very happy evening! The casual atmosphere is great for families, solo travelers, or folks who want the feel of a local environment. Although kind of hidden yet centrally located, I agree with fellow reviewers that this spot is worth your time. Excellent service, food, and value

We had a fantastic dinner at Antichi Sapori in Trapani…read more We started with their scafood tasting plate (octopus, smoked tuna and swordfish, squid and fish fried, sardine meatballs and , bruschette with Trapanese pesto). As a main course we had the homemade pasta; mine with clams & zucchini; hers with Trapanese pesto which is made with fresh tomatoes & almonds. To accompany our meal, one of my favorite Donnafugata wines, Vigna di Gabri.

Antichi Sapori has a good reputation for being one the best places to eat in Trapani. I am sorry,…read moreafter going back several times I am not that convinced anymore. It's rather turned into a tourist trap. The cous cous here is advertised as freshly prepared according to the local tradition, but it was nothing to tell home about AND 19 Euro for one portion really is a LOT. I am pretty sure that last weekend's was my last visit here. In the meanwhile many good alternative options are available in the city.

Other than not being "open" until 1pm, this was great. Trapani is a seafood town so we stuck to seafood. I had the grilled swordfish which was a nice sized steak topped with a rich tomato sauce that somehow didn't overwhelm the flavor of the swordfish. My friend chose the roasted octopus and it was definitely a different presentation than either of us have seen before. Big portion, very tasty and nicely done. House red wine was great and the salads were huge. The restaurant is decorated nicely and could be quite the romantic spot if that's your mood. Regardless, it was a great place for lunch and would be for dinner here in Trapani. There is no street parking as it is in the middle of the pedestrian neighborhood.
